The photograph collection contains many
portraits and snapshots of Devere and Marie Allen taken at various
times in their lives. One passport photograph shows Marie with their
daughters Shirley and Jean.

Devere Allen's attendance at the Congres
International des Resistants à la Guerre, held in August, 1931
in Lyons, France, is documented in an 8" x 10" photograph, which had
been framed. It was found in a box of miscellaneous personal effects,
with no notes or explanation.

As part of a book proposal called "American
Pioneers of Peace," Allen had collected photograph portraits of
various peace leaders. Although the book proposal was written around
1933, Allen obviously added to the photograph file at later dates,
since some photos are dated as late as the 1940s. These portraits,
taken from series B-1, box 5, include: Fenner Brockway, Paul Douglas,
Sherwood Eddy, M.K. Gandhi with Romain Rolland and Miss Slade, A.J.
Muste, Bertrand Russell, Rosika Schwimmer with Dorothy Gish and
others, and Norman Thomas.

In 1934, H. Runham Brown, of the War
Resisters' International in England, sent Allen several photos of
European war resisters and groups of war resisters from New Zealand,
Bulgaria, Russia, Switzerland, Poland, and Finland. Brown also
included a photograph of a youth anti-war demonstration in Berlin in
1920, and one in Hyde Park, London [undated] showing Maude
Royden on the speaker's platform. In addition, there is a photo of a
WRI conference held in Austria, 1928.
